jestest posted:Just started playing the pre-sequal, is it just me or is lacking a dedicated sniper class like zero from BL2? The lawbringer seems to be closest, but doesn't look like she has anything in her tree to improve sniping. On the other hand, guaranteed locked-on headshots on stationary targets using Vladof sniper rifles is all you need. You're right, though, the dedicated Sniper character is coming as DLC sometime soon-ish.

Jibo posted:Does anyone even like the arenas? They keep making them and they always end up being boring as poo poo except maybe for the one from the Tina DLC and the original Moxie one from the first game where you got alternate versions of past bosses. The arenas were fun in BL1. Like people said, Mad Moxxi had issues because it wasn't rewarding and it felt sloggy. Father Wendigo posted:Well, at least they confirmed we're getting less than half of the DLC campaign content. Hopefully they're good to make up for the less content. I know that the BL2 season pass wasn't really fun to solo outside of Tiny Tina and only had value when I was cooping.

I thought Captain Scarlett and Mr. Torgue DLC were fun enough to play through. I loved Tiny Tina's DLC and Hammerlock's wasn't as bad as everyone says.

BL2's campaign dlc was farmed out except for the Tina one. Presequel's seems to be all in house (between Gearbox proper and 2k Australia at least) so I expect higher quality.

A future DLC character has a tree all about sniping tho (and it's way better than Zero's).

Doodles posted:And that's assuming you could get through all 20 rounds without the game crashing and losing all your work. (I couldn't. After the second time, I gave up.) My roommate and I did it with 1 low level character and then a high level one who did all the killing. It still took a long rear end time so both of us could get the achievements.

You're also forgetting that multiple DLCs means multiple locales, themes, and changes of scenery, something that a ton of people are bitching about. Having only one DLC is only going to exacerbate the biggest weakness of the Pre-Sequel: it's incredibly small in scope and practice. In further DLC news, Pitchford backhandedly confirmed that there's only going to be 1 campaign DLC with this tweet:

The level cap increase doesn't count, the 4th DLC is the arena thing.

I'm confused, UVHM and the 10 extra levels are separate? You can do UVHM at 50?

It's the same as it was with BL2, I assume. UVHM is free but the level cap increase will cost.

this game is so dead. Cause it sucks. People, aren't loving stupid. Most of this hype thread is just that, bullshitty hype about a sub-par, short, rpg that was mostly promised to get better in DLC. The curtain has been pulled back and everyone pretty much gets that its not even worth one or two playthroughs. For those of you still holding on like its the bee's tits, you need to stop hyping a game that sucks out loud. Be real with other goons. Its not worth the money.

I wouldn't have played it if I hadn't gotten it for free, that much is true. Borderlands 2 was a lot more fresh when it came out.

Do you just grit your teeth, going "Man, this game better get good the ninth time! Ugh, it still sucks, well, maybe a tenth...!" Is it "Only by playing through ten times can I have an informed opinion on how much this sucks!" Is there a dog with a gun to your head telling you to play, and you're like "I wish I could stop playing this, but a dog has a gun to my head!" Of course if you just cheated your way to level 50 that's fine too, but you may want to mention that.
